Date Masamune

About

The ruler of the Date clan known as the Dokuganryū (One-Eyed Dragon). He is a cocky, ambitious warlord who tends to speak in a mixture of English. Usually wields a single katana, but he can store and fight with six swords at once (three in each hand, held between the fingers). He is also depicted in a rivalry with Sanada Yukimura.
Masamune is one of five previous generals (the others are Sanada Yukimura, Maeda Keiji, Chōsokabe Motochika and Fūma Kotarō) in Sengoku Basara 2 Heroes to receive a three stage gaiden. His gaiden revolves around his elimination of Oda Nobunaga and his rivalry with Yukimura, though he does befriend him at some point.
Masamune returns in Sengoku Basara 3, though his personality became less-joking and more serious after he tasted the first true defeat by the hands of Ishida Mitsunari.
